as her marriage crumbles, a judge must decide a case involving a teenage boy who is refusing a blood transfusion on religious principle.. i saw the trailer for this a long time ago and its subject matter immediately got me interested.
it has just been added the netflix catalogue here in australia and i am looking forward to finally watching it.. please, if you've seen it, no spoilers!.
I enjoyed the movie as a whole if you know what i mean ,I think its a big ask for film makers to really know what its like to be indoctrinated over many years as a Jehovah`s Witness and portray it how we ex JW`s would like it to be portrayed.
But I think they did a good job overall.
"Apostasy" was another good one .
"Worlds apart" another good one
If you haven`t seen them do yourself a favour.
road to nowhere ,
Didn`t you mean to say a murderer gets a resurrection and a pot smoker gets Armageddon ?
Anyhow ,shouldn`t law enforcement agencies ,police etc. be made aware of this letter of the G.B. of J.W.`s to the elders ,as this obviously applies all around the world .?
Maybe even Current Affairs / Foreign Correspondent TV programs could make good use of a letter like this for one of there TV programs. ?
I wonder if Angus Stewart & Justice Mclellan of the Investigation into Institutionalised Child Sexual Abuse Enquirey in Australia were aware of this letter and whether it would have made a difference in their findings about the religion of Jehovah`s Witnesses.?
for those of you who've watched the witnesses documentary, let's suppose for a moment that the org was forced to make their database of abusers available to the courts.
if this database is as detailed and meticulous as it is claimed, how in the world could the org (in its present form) survive that?
assuming they don't go bankrupt after all of the new abuse claims, would they go underground, shut down the kingdom halls, stop the preaching?
Wasn`t there a judge somewhere that gave a court order for JW`s to release this data base & face an x amount of $ fine every week or so if they didn`t do so ? And that it is still in force ?
And the files that were handed over to Zalkins law firm from JW`s ,why cant he release these files to the judge that has imposed the fines on WT/JW`s if they refused to do so ?
Why cant Zalkin hand these files over to the Judge that requests them ?
What am I missing here ? it just seems like such a ridiculous situation to be happening.?
not sure if this was posted before as i could not find it.. .
the two-night investigative special follows the stories of four former jehovah’s witnesses, as they recount details of the sexual abuse they endured during their time within the organization.
oxygen, the destination for high-quality crime programming, debuts “the witnesses” on saturday, february 8 at 7pm et/pt and sunday, february 9 at 7pm et/pt.
I`m not sure who I got part 2 from but whoever it was thank you ,it should be an eye opener for anybody who sits on the fence or doubts the extent WT/JW will go to avoid scrutiny or put someone from the G.B. on line to defend their faith.
They just fail to show up and defend themselves and this is Governing Body members I`m talking about who have the best possible chance to defend the faith on National Television and they wont show their faces.
Yet they expect the rank & file to go D2D and defend the faith ?
Where is the Leadership example ?
just talked to my pimi mom about this special, of course she saw it advertised, but didn’t watch it.
she told me those programs are “ apostate lies.” i asked her if people magazine is apostate.
she said no, but the one who wrote the article is.
As they say a picture speaks a thousand words.
I feel your frustration Biahi
"when someone is disfellowshipped from the religion, normal family relations continue, with the exception of spiritual fellowship.”a watchtower lawyer clears up this common misunderstanding:.
https://jwvictims.org/2017/11/19/watchtower-lawyer-lies-outright-in-court-about-disfellowshipping-and-shunning/ .
The JW`s also lyingly try to put the onus on the one that is shunned saying it`s their fault we are not talking to them because they knew the consequences of leaving the religion .So they still left knowing the consequences so its not our fault but theirs.....?
How do you argue with reasoning like that ?
i found out just last night that back in 2015 scientists discovered a piece of amber estimated to be over 15 million years old.
inside the amber was a flea, very similar to the size and kind that attack and eat our blood today.
whats even more astonishing is in the mouth they found bacteria that has the same make up as bubonic plague.
I`m just curious as to why the person gave me a dislike and what their reason was.?
regarding prophecies, i can’t name one thing jws have been correct about.
as a matter of fact nothing stands out to me that shows the witnesses have the truth..
The Governing Body is not inspired, nor infallible.
And of course they have never ever got any of their Bible prophecy`s right, no not one in their over 100+ years of trying.
a jobo i know has cancer.
her son goes and cleans her house and generally cares for her.
so does another non-jobo relative.. the congregation, interestingly, has shown very little support apart from the odd one rabbiting on about 'bible promises this and that'.. so, the co visited and said, 'but your son is an apostate(tm).
The other side of the coin to this is that the elderly and infirm Jehovah`s Witnesses who have given their life to the religion are now left to rely on the Christian religions that the WT has told them to condemn all of there lives yet they are the ones that take them in and give them all of the assistance and health care they need.
someone has uploaded both episodes to google drive.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1l0ubvtriw6ytinnenmsmxpefotphconi/view.
I cant download this file as they say too many people have already downloaded it ,try again after 24 hours.
I guess thats a good sign eh ?
If its seen how popular this video is maybe it will become more readily available.
